"The SAT is..." seems like a questionable statement even before you complete the sentence, given that it has changed over time.

Is it equally racist now versus in the 90s?

Probably not, but who cares? The point isn’t that the SAT has been equally racist for some amount of time. The point is that bias exists in standardized processes.

If the SAT has undergone changes, obviously someone intended to improve it. What they were trying to improve and what the consequences actually were, if it got better or worse, would be relevant to why it has problems now and what they are.
